The Greatest Show on Earth.....

We thought this would be the best & easiest way to keep all our family & friends up to date on our day to day happenings in Whistler. We'll try to make a post each day, however we're not going to fool ourselves. We're not young fella's any more and the days are going to be long. But we'll try our best to include as many of the highlights of our adventure of a lifetime as often as possible.

Gold Medal Plates

During the Olympics we have 3 guest Chef’s that will visit us and prepare a dish for 500 each night to serve the Athletes over a 2 day period. This week we had Hayato Okiamitsu the Executive Chef from “Catch” restaurant in Calgary. Considered one of the Premier restaurants in Canada with the founding Chef Michael Noble who opened it around 2002 (another Canadian Iron Chef competitor).  Hayato had a bit of a challenge trying to Sear his tuna for 500 people so I asked him to try the Accutemp griddle. It heats high enough to sear the tuna with enough room to spare for another 500 portions. Hayato was so amazed at the griddle he agreed to a photo for my blog, Check out the photo with the tuna on the grill.

    Darn right Chef Bill was working. The words "DRIVING FORCE" come to mind watching him make sure all in the hot kitchen were on task and the food was up to his standard.
    Great job Chef Pratt
